  • All submissions must be original work that has not been published previously or is not under consideration for publication elsewhere.

2. Manuscript Preparation

  • Use Microsoft Word or any compatible word processing software to prepare your manuscript.
  • Double-space the text, use 12-point Times New Roman font, and maintain 1-inch margins on all sides.
  • Organize your manuscript into the following sections: Title page, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, Acknowledgments (if applicable), and References.
  • The title page should include the manuscript title, names and affiliations of all authors, corresponding author's contact information (including email address), and any funding sources or conflicts of interest.

  • Submit figures as separate high-resolution files (JPEG, PNG, or TIFF format) with a minimum resolution of 300 dpi.
  • Create tables using the table function in Microsoft Word, rather than embedding them as images.
